I have a WordPress website using the Suffusion theme that is integrated with a genealogy system called TNG (www.hcnhistory.org.uk). TNG uses Simile timeline, and I have adapted its use of Simile a little. This has worked fine for over a year, and I am a happy user. Thanks to everyone who has made such interesting code available.
The timeline still works fine outside of WordPress - see an example at http://www.hcnhistory.org.uk/tng/timeline2.php?primaryID=I25813&tree=hcn&chartwidth= <http://www.hcnhistory.org.uk/tng/timeline2.php?primaryID=I25813&tree=hcn&chartwidth=> But within WordPress/Suffusion there is now no data displayed on the timeline - see http://www.hcnhistory.org.uk/blank-for-people/timeline2.php?primaryID=I25813&tree=hcn&chartwidth=; and the error message in Chrome in the console is simile-ajax-bundle.js:1541 TypeError: Cannot read property 'documentElement' of null "XmlHttp: Error handling onReadyStateChange" simile-ajax-bundle.js:1543 Uncaught XmlHttp: Error handling onReadyStateChange Similar symptoms appear in Edge and Firefox. I cannot remember exactly when I last saw it working, but everything was fine until a recent update (possibly of WordPress or of Suffusion to 4.4.8). In diagnosing the problem I have deactivated all WordPress plugins, and my mods (including my adaptation to TNG's use of Simile) - but the symptoms still persist. I am actually using a Suffusion child theme, and I have found that the problem disappears if I switch to Suffusion itself. So I examined everything about my child theme (which I have not changed recently) and the problem is in my child's functions.php. But the problem does not seem to be with my code, because if I remove everything but <?php ?> (or indeed leave it totally blank) the problem still exists. If I delete this blank functions.php in the child then the problem goes away. This is now beyond my technical abilities. I have asked on the Suffusion support site (at http://aquoid.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=32296) if anyone can help, but so far have had no replies. I would be very grateful if anyone with knowledge of the Simile timeline software can give me any pointers as to where the problem might be, and what I might do to fix it? Thanks again for great software, and any help you can give. Peter -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SIMILE Widgets" group.
